Was kinda hoping the Steelers would get blown out. Would have love to see if Mike Tomlin became a real option as next HC.

“But he only wins 9 games most years.”

We’d win the South or Wildcard most years with 9 wins.  Ron won it with 7 wins in 2014.

In 9 years, Ron won nine games 3 (!) times and a bunch of horrible years mixed in.  And that was with Cam Newton.

I also love that the hot topic for the late game is how the Bills offense is suddenly thriving with Joe Brady at OC.

Bills fans are worried a team might poach him this offseason.

The list of players and coaches that “suck” at Carolina and then excel elsewhere is nauseating.  

And I still root for every one of them.

Or, how “Tomlin can’t keep control of his team”, yet those same ppl wanna still follow the Steelers model lol. They still want Colbert

Some of us realized at the time that Brady was getting scapegoated. I'm honestly surprised it took him this long to get another shot and I'm not surprised he suddenly had Allen and the Bills' offense looking better.

The Panthers have pretty much made the wrong decision at ever given opportunity under David Tepper. 

I said when we fired Brady that if you gave me a chance to invest in Rhule's NFL future or Brady's NFL future I'd go all in on Joe Brady's.

He kept control of Antonio Brown.

Something that Bill Belichick, Jon Gruden, Mike Mayock, Bruce Arians, and Tom Brady couldn’t do.

Mike Tomlin is one of the greatest ever.  I don’t love the Steelers but I’d like to see him retire as a Steeler.

It was obvious he was an up and coming talent in a bad situation.  HC on the hot seat, young unproven OC is your first one to go.

He’s gonna be good, we should bring him back before someone else wises up. (He won’t come back to this mess)

Yeah, because I've been here staunchly defending Trubisky at every step.

Oh wait...

You sure have for Howell lol but you do the same post every week and are quiet when that backup QB shows why they are a back up….Dobbs…Browning…etc

i will say this, Bryce has his criticisms but damn dude you have thrown him to the fire Clausen style with the way you talk about him.

No one not named David Tepper wouldn't trade Bryce Young for Sam Howell straight up right now. One guy has shown NFL level talent, the other hasn't. It's really that simple.

That’s like…your opinion man…but what you believe and the rest of the league thinks is not the same. I know you watch Washington games (because of the unc dude) but they have fans throwing him to the wolves and want a new qb too.

Who has shown more promise and more ability?

It's really that simple.

I'll ride with Howell. But that's not what you tried to say. You tried to insinuate I do this with every UNC player and it's demonstrably false.

The unc thing is me being petty I will say that but you go down guns a blazing for a 2nd year guy with a decent cast of people vs a rookie on the team you root for that wasn’t even given a chance.

    • Interestingly I think we have kind of of gone through this as an organization. Richardson implemented an FO driven tank. Bad roster, no cash spent, coach uninterested. It may have been for different reasons but I think the results were the same. A team that wasn't going to win many if any games. We ended up with the #1 pick. Cam Newton came in and changed the franchise. It worked, but Cam himself pointed to the losing culture in the locker room needing to be changed. It probably took about 2-3 years for that to happen. Tank worked pretty damn well for us. Cam is one of one. Not another like him, everyone can't deliver on his draft status AND change a culture basically on his own.  So as an exercise here are the last 30 #1 picks. If you tanked and got to pick #1 how many of these guys do you think were worth it? Not just good players, but franchise changers. Guys who will take your culture and shift it so the tank was actually worth it. I would say maybe 9 or 10 guys would be worth a tank, pending the last 5 picks?    2025: Cam Ward (Miami (FL)) - Tennessee Titans 2024: Caleb Williams (USC) – Chicago Bears 2023: Bryce Young (Alabama) – Carolina Panthers 2022: Travon Walker (Georgia) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2021: Trevor Lawrence (Clemson) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2020: Joe Burrow (LSU) – Cincinnati Bengals 2019: Kyler Murray (Oklahoma) – Arizona Cardinals 2018: Baker Mayfield (Oklahoma) – Cleveland Browns 2017: Myles Garrett (Texas A&M) – Cleveland Browns 2016: Jared Goff (California) – Los Angeles Rams 2015: Jameis Winston (Florida State) – Tampa Bay Buccaneers 2014: Jadeveon Clowney (South Carolina) – Houston Texans 2013: Eric Fisher (Central Michigan) – Kansas City Chiefs 2012: Andrew Luck (Stanford) – Indianapolis Colts 2011: Cam Newton (Auburn) – Carolina Panthers 2010: Sam Bradford (Oklahoma) – St. Louis Rams 2009: Matthew Stafford (Georgia) – Detroit Lions 2008: Jake Long (Michigan) – Miami Dolphins 2007: JaMarcus Russell (LSU) – Oakland Raiders 2006: Mario Williams (North Carolina State) – Houston Texans 2005: Alex Smith (Utah) – San Francisco 49ers 2004: Eli Manning (Mississippi) – San Diego Chargers 2003: Carson Palmer (USC) – Cincinnati Bengals 2002: David Carr (Fresno State) – Houston Texans 2001: Michael Vick (Virginia Tech) – Atlanta Falcons 2000: Courtney Brown (Penn State) – Cleveland Browns 1999: Tim Couch (Kentucky) – Cleveland Browns 1998: Peyton Manning (Tennessee) – Indianapolis Colts 1997: Orlando Pace (Ohio State) – St. Louis Rams 1996: Keyshawn Johnson (USC) – New York Jets 1995: Ki-Jana Carter (Penn State) – Cincinnati Bengals
